I did the dumbest thing ever,
I sent my muse a letter.
No, I’m not trying to be clever.
Will it get read? I’m really not trying to be a ‘go getter.’
I just wanted to say thanks.
Will it get thrown in the trash?
Inspiration in me you have banked.
It would be too cool if a response was dashed.
I have no hope my letter will get read.
Or a response of any kind I will be fed.
Will I get a ‘seise and desist?’
Dismissed?
But the fact remains, I sent my muse a letter.
Who even does that anymore?
With social media, e-mails, is a letter antiquated or better?
Only time will tell if I’ve scored.
Or if I strike out completely.
I did the dumbest thing ever.

What is something you have done that could be perceived as the ‘dumbest thing ever?’
